You're right Bob, just getting through his security detail will be a challenge. He's gone global.

Just an FYI, Gustave Whitehead was first in flight in Connecticut 2 years before the Wright Brothers. 30 years later the Smithsonian refused to recognize his accomplishment because he was a German immigrant and that would not have been politically correct at that time (1930s).
